20050808#1: Malaysia Blogger Map

I have a bit of time to kill, so am gonna catch up with some blogs that have been in draft mode for some time. It's August 8th, 1025pm as I start this blogathon of sorts.

Happy reading!!


My first topic: The Malaysia Blogger Map

I think it's a great idea!

This is like a physical representation of let's say the MyCen directory, and much more appealing... This way I can choose to explore some Malaysian blogsites by location (i.e. Penang-based).

Pity the creator is limiting it to physical locations in Malaysia, as opposed to Malaysians all over the world, cos I don't think I'm eligible... after all, I may officially reside in Petaling Jaya, but I consider myself based in the U.S. at the moment. But heck, it's a start. Check out this link if you are interested in the more technical aspects of his quest to create the map on which to plot the Malaysian blogs:

For those who were wondering, I was pointed in this direction by a post by Adam. No I don't know this person, but this is one of the Malaysian blogs I bookmarked sometime during my web-crawling activities :p

btw, today i came across a similar service: Bravenet.com's Guestmap service! Your visitor can indicate where they are from on a map of the world! Bravenet.com seems to have LOTS of other services too... aarrggghhh!!! it's sooooo tempting to put lots of these gizmos on my blog (like that daily cartoon service!), but that will start to B(L)OG down my page, I'm sure! boohooooo!
(ugh - finally got done with this at 10:52 pm! let's move on to the next topic, shall we?!)

 ... hi again. This return to blogging is really not working out, is it? Actually, I am writing, three pages of mind vomit and affirmations ...
